ORIGINAL POSTER
I am from the US an am planning to move to Chiang Mai in June for 13 months. I am retired and have a good retirement income - well over the minimum required for a retirement visa. I plan to travel inside and outside Thailand quite a bit. What type of visa do I need? Do I buy it before I leave or do I get it when I get to Thailand? Thank you.
